SQL
TECHNOLOGIES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE
1 ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
SQL Technologies
Corp. (f/k/a Safety Quick Lighting & Fans Corp.), a Florida corporation (the “Company”), was originally organized
in May 2004 as a limited liability company under the name of Safety Quick Light, LLC. The Company was converted to corporation
on November 6, 2012. Effective August 12, 2016, the Company changed its name from “Safety Quick Lighting & Fans Corp.”
to “SQL Technologies Corp.” The Company holds a number of worldwide patents and has received a variety of final electrical
code approvals, including UL Listing and CSA approval (for the United States and Canadian Markets), the CE Marking (for the European
market) and, in December 2016, was approved by the National Fire Protection Association for inclusion in the NFPA 70: National
Electrical Code (NEC). The Company maintains offices in Georgia, Florida and in Foshan, Peoples Republic of China.
The Company
is engaged in the business of developing proprietary technology that enables a quick and safe installation of electrical fixtures,
such as ceiling fans and light fixtures, using a power plug installed in ceiling and wall electrical junction boxes. The Company’s
base technology consists of a weight bearing, fixable socket and a revolving plug for conducting electric power and supporting
an electrical appliance attached to a wall or ceiling. The socket is comprised of an electric power supply that is connected to
the electrical junction box. The plug, which is incorporated in an electrical appliance, attaches to the socket via a male post
and is capable of feeding electric power to the appliance. The plug includes a second structural element allowing it to revolve
and a releasable latching that provides a retention force between the socket and the plug to prevent unintentional disengagement.
The socket and plug can be detached by releasing the latch, thereby disengaging the electric power from the plug. The socket is
designed to replace the support bar incorporated in electric junction boxes, and the plug can be installed in light fixtures,
ceiling fans and wall sconce fixtures. The use of the Company’s technology enables the installation and replacement of ceiling
fans and lights and wall sconces in a fraction of the time of similar, conventional appliances.
The Company
currently markets consumer friendly, energy saving “plugin” ceiling fans and light fixtures under the General Electric
Company (“GE” or “General Electric”) brand as well as “conventional” ceiling lights and fans
carrying the GE brand. The Company also owns 98.8% of SQL Lighting& Fans LLC (the “Subsidiary”). The Subsidiary
was formed in Florida on April 27, 2011 and is in the business of manufacturing the patented device that the Company owns. The
Subsidiary had no activity during the periods presented.
The Company’s fiscal year
end is December 31.
NOTE
2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following
is a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies:
Basis of
Presentation
The accompanying
condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) under the accrual basis of accounting.
Principles
of Consolidation
The condensed
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SQL Technologies Corp. (f/k/a Safety Quick Lighting & Fans Corp.)
and the Subsidiary, SQL Lighting & Fans LLC. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Non-controlling
Interest
In May 2012,
in connection with the sale of the Company’s membership units in the Subsidiary, the Company’s ownership percentage
in the Subsidiary decreased from 98.8% to 94.35%. The Company then reacquired these membership units in September 2013, increasing
the ownership percentage from 94.35% back to 98.8%. During year ended 2017 and 2016, there was no activity in the Subsidiary.
5
Use of
Estimates
The preparation
of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.
Such estimates
and assumptions impact both assets and liabilities, including but not limited to: net realizable value of accounts receivable
and inventory, estimated useful lives and potential impairment of property and equipment, the valuation of intangible assets,
estimate of fair value of share based payments and derivative liabilities, estimates of fair value of warrants issued and recorded
as debt discount, estimates of tax liabilities and estimates of the probability and potential magnitude of contingent liabilities.
Making estimates
requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a
condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered
in formulating its estimate could change in the near term due to one or more future nonconforming events. Accordingly, actual
results could differ significantly from estimates.
Reclassifications
For comparability, reclassifications
of certain prior-year balances were made in order to confirm with current-year presentations.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company’s
operations are subject to risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, regulatory and other risks including the potential
risk of business failure.
The Company
has experienced, and in the future, expects to continue to experience, variability in its sales and earnings. The factors expected
to contribute to this variability include, among others, (i) the uncertainty associated with the commercialization and ultimate
success of the product, (ii) competition inherent at large national retail chains where product is expected to be sold (iii) general
economic conditions and (iv) the related volatility of prices pertaining to the cost of sales.
Cash and
Cash Equivalents
Cash
and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash on hand, demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions,
and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less. The Company had $3,149,362 and $4,877,720
in cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, respectively. The Company has deposits in financial
institutions which exceeds the amount insured by the FDIC. The amount of uninsured deposits was $2,649,362 at September 30, 2018.
Accounts
Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable
are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary
course of business but mitigates the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts.
The Company
recognizes an allowance for losses on accounts receivable in an amount equal to the estimated probable losses net of recoveries.
The allowance is based on an analysis of historical bad debt experience, current receivables aging, and expected future bad debts,
as well as an assessment of specific identifiable customer accounts considered at risk or uncollectible.

expense at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.
Inventory
Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost, determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Cost principally consists of the purchase
price (adjusted for lower of cost or market), customs, duties, and freight. The Company periodically reviews historical sales
activity to determine potentially obsolete items and evaluates the impact of any anticipated changes in future demand.

$ 2,390,869
$ 2,352,573
The Company
will maintain an allowance based on specific inventory items that have shown no activity over a 24-month period. The Company tracks
inventory as it is disposed, scrapped or sold at below cost to determine whether additional items on hand should be reduced in
value through an allowance method. As of September 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, the Company has determined that no allowance
is required.
Valuation
of Long-lived Assets and Identifiable Intangible Assets
The Company
reviews for impairment of long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of any asset may not be recoverable. In the event of impairment, the asset is written down to
its fair market value. The Company determined an impairment adjustment of $600,000 was necessary for the year ended 2017.
Property
and Equipment
Property and
equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation, and is reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
Depreciation
of property and equipment is provided utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, ranging from 5 to 7
years of the respective assets. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
Upon sale
or retirement of property and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain
or loss is reflected in the statements of operations.
Intangible
Asset Patent
The Company
developed various patents for an installation device used in light fixtures and ceiling fans. Costs incurred for submitting the
applications to the United States Patent and Trademark Office for these patents have been capitalized. Patent costs are being
amortized using the straight-line method over the related 15-year lives. The Company begins amortizing patent costs once a filing
receipt is received stating the patent serial number and filing date from the Patent Office.
The Company
incurs certain legal and related costs in connection with patent applications. The Company capitalizes such costs to be amortized
over the expected life of the patent to the extent that an economic benefit is anticipated from the resulting patent or alternative
future use is available to the Company. The Company also capitalizes legal costs incurred in the defense of the Company’s
patents when it is believed that the future economic benefit of the patent will be maintained or increased, and a successful defense
is probable. Capitalized patent defense costs are amortized over the remaining expected life of the related patent. The Company’s
assessment of future economic benefit or a successful defense of its patents involves considerable management judgment, and an
unfavorable outcome of litigation could result in a material impairment charge up to the carrying value of these assets.
7
GE
Trademark License Agreement
The
Company entered into a Trademark License Agreement with General Electric on June 15, 2011, as amended on April 17, 2013, August
13, 2014 and September 25, 2018 (collectively, the “License Agreement”), allowing the Company to utilize the “GE
trademark” on products which meet the stringent manufacturing and quality requirements of General Electric. As described
further in Note 10, the Company is required to pay a minimum trademark licensing fee to General Electric. As of December 31, 2017,
the Initial Royalty Obligation was $12,000,000, to be paid in full by November 30, 2018. However, by amendment of the License
Agreement on September 25, 2018, the balance of the Initial Royalty Obligation was waived. In consideration, the Company agreed
to pay $2,000,000 each year in 2018, 2019 and 2020 (the Minimum Payments”) for a total of $6,000,000. The Minimum Payments
will be offset against quarterly royalty payments based on a percent of sales. Under SFAS 142 “Accounting for Certain Intangible
Assets” the Company has recorded the value of the License Agreement and will amortize it over the life of the License Agreement,
which is 60 months. The Company determined an impairment adjustment of $600,000 was necessary for the year ended 2017.
Fair Value
of Financial Instruments
The Company
measures assets and liabilities at fair value based on an expected exit price as defined by the authoritative guidance on fair
value measurements, which represents the amount that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability,
as the case may be, in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value may be based on assumptions that
market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes
a consistent framework for measuring fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis whereby inputs, used in valuation
techniques, are assigned a hierarchical level.
The following
are the hierarchical levels of inputs to measure fair value:
•
Level 1 –
Observable inputs that reflect quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
•
Level 2 Inputs reflect
quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; quoted prices for similar assets or
liabilities in active markets; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities;
or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
•
Level 3 –
Unobservable inputs reflecting the Company’s assumptions incorporated in valuation techniques used to determine fair
value. These assumptions are required to be consistent with market participant assumptions that are reasonably available.
The carrying
amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses, other current assets, accounts
payable & accrued expenses, certain notes payable and notes payable – related party, approximate their fair values because
of the short maturity of these instruments.
The Company
accounts for its derivative liabilities, at fair value, on a recurring basis under Level 3. See Note 9.
Embedded
Conversion Features
The Company
evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt under ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” to determine
whether the embedded conversion feature(s) should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at
fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment under
ASC 815, the instrument is evaluated under ASC 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options” for consideration of
any beneficial conversion features.
Derivative
Financial Instruments
The Company
does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates
all of it financial instruments, including stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain
features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the
derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then revalued at each reporting date, with changes in the
fair value reported as charges or credits to income.
The Company
changed its method to estimate the valuation of valuation for fair market values of derivatives in 2017 to a lattice-binomial
option-pricing model (“lattice-binomial model”) from the Black-Scholes option-pricing model (“Black-Scholes
model”) which was previously used under SFAS 123 and are reflected on our condensed consolidated statement of operations
as other (income) expense at each reporting period. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments
should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is reassessed at the end of each reporting period. However, such new and/or complex
instruments may have immature or limited markets. As a result, the pricing models used for valuation of derivatives often incorporate
significant estimates and assumptions, which may impact the level of precision in the financial statements. Furthermore, depending
on the terms of a derivative or embedded derivative, the valuation of derivatives may be removed from the financial statements
upon conversion of the underlying instrument into some other security. The change in valuation methodology for accounting estimates
had no material impact on the Company’s previous calculations.
8
The classification
of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at
the end of each reporting period.
The Company
has reserved for issuance 26,751,860 shares of Common stock associated with conversion features on Series A Preferred Stock, warrants
and options. These shares have been reserved for issuance by the Company’s stock transfer agent, and accordingly, no derivative
liability has been calculated on these shares.
Beneficial
Conversion Feature
For conventional
convertible debt where the rate of conversion is below market value, the Company records a “beneficial conversion feature”
(“BCF”) and related debt discount.
When the Company
records a BCF, the relative fair value of the BCF is recorded as a debt discount against the face amount of the respective debt
instrument (offset to additional paid in capital) and amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt.
Debt Issue Costs and Debt Discount
The Company
may record debt issue costs and/or debt discounts in connection with raising funds through the issuance of debt. These costs may
be paid in the form of cash, or equity (such as warrants). These costs are amortized to interest expense over the life of the
debt. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs, a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately expensed.
Original
Issue Discount
For certain
convertible debt issued, the Company may provide the debt holder with an original issue discount. The original issue discount
would be recorded to debt discount, reducing the face amount of the note and is amortized to interest expense over the life of
the debt.
Extinguishments
of Liabilities
The Company
accounts for extinguishments of liabilities in accordance with ASC 86010 (formerly SFAS 140) “Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities”. When the conditions are met for extinguishment accounting,
the liabilities are derecognized and the gain or loss on the sale is recognized.
Stock Based
Compensation – Employees
The Company
accounts for its stock-based compensation in which the Company obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions under
the recognition and measurement principles of the fair value recognition provisions of section 718-10-30 of the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification. Pursuant to paragraph 718-10-30-6 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, all transactions in which
goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value
of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
The measurement
date used to determine the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the performance is complete
or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur.
If the Company
is a newly formed corporation or shares of the Company are thinly traded, the use of share prices established in the Company’s
most recent private placement memorandum (based on sales to third parties), or weekly or monthly price observations would generally
be more appropriate than the use of daily price observations as such shares could be artificially inflated due to a larger spread
between the bid and asked quotes and lack of consistent trading in the market.
The fair value
of share options and similar instruments is estimated on the date of grant using a lattice-binomial option pricing valuation model.
The ranges of assumptions for inputs are as follows:
•
Expected term of
share options and similar instruments: The expected life of options and similar instruments represents the period of time
the option and/or warrant are expected to be outstanding. Pursuant to Paragraph 718-10-50-2(f)(2)(i) of the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification the expected term of share options and similar instruments represents the period of time the options
and similar instruments are expected to be outstanding taking into consideration of the contractual term of the instruments
and employees expected exercise and post vesting employment termination behavior into the fair value (or calculated value)
of the instruments. Pursuant to paragraph 718-10-S99-1, it may be appropriate to use the simplified method, i.e., expected
term = ((vesting term + original contractual term) / 2), if (i) A company does not have sufficient historical exercise data
to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term due to the limited period of time its equity shares have
been publicly traded; (ii) A company significantly changes the terms of its share option grants or the types of employees
that receive share option grants such that its historical exercise data may no longer provide a reasonable basis upon which
to estimate expected term; or (iii) A company has or expects to have significant structural changes in its business such
that its historical exercise data may no longer provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term. The Company
uses the simplified method to calculate expected term of share options and similar instruments as the Company does not have
sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term.

•
Expected volatility
of the entity’s shares and the method used to estimate it. Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 718-10-50-2(f) (2)(ii) a thinly
traded or nonpublic entity that uses the calculated value method shall disclose the reasons why it is not practicable for
the Company to estimate the expected volatility of its share price, the appropriate industry sector index that it has selected,
the reasons for selecting that particular index, and how it has calculated historical volatility using that index. The Company
uses the average historical volatility of the comparable companies over the expected contractual life of the share options
or similar instruments as its expected volatility. If shares of a company are thinly traded the use of weekly or monthly price
observations would generally be more appropriate than the use of daily price observations as the volatility calculation using
daily observations for such shares could be artificially inflated due to a larger spread between the bid and asked quotes
and lack of consistent trading in the market
•
Risk-free rate(s).
An entity that uses a method that employs different risk-free rates shall disclose the range of risk-free rates used. The
risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for periods within the expected
term of the share options and similar instruments.
Generally,
all forms of share-based payments, including stock option grants, warrants and restricted stock grants and stock appreciation
rights are measured at their fair value on the awards’ grant date, based on estimated number of awards that are ultimately
expected to vest.
The expense
resulting from share-based payments is recorded in general and administrative expense in the statements of operations.
Stock Based
Compensation – Nonemployees
Equity
Instruments Issued to Parties Other Than Employees for Acquiring Goods or Services
The Company
accounts for equity instruments issued to parties other than employees for acquiring goods or services under guidance of Subtopic
505-50 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Subtopic 505-50”).
Pursuant to
ASC Section 505-50-30, all transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments
are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever
is more reliably measurable. The measurement date used to determine the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier
of the date on which the performance is complete or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur. If the Company
is a newly formed corporation or shares of the Company are thinly traded the use of share prices established in the Company’s
most recent private placement memorandum, or weekly or monthly price observations would generally be more appropriate than the
use of daily price observations as such shares could be artificially inflated due to a larger spread between the bid and asked
quotes and lack of consistent trading in the market.
The fair value
of share options and similar instruments is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing valuation model.
The ranges of assumptions for inputs are as follows:
•
Expected term of
share options and similar instruments: Pursuant to Paragraph 718-10-50-2(f)(2)(i) of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification
the expected term of share options and similar instruments represents the period of time the options and similar instruments
are expected to be outstanding taking into consideration of the contractual term of the instruments and holder’s expected
exercise behavior into the fair value (or calculated value) of the instruments. The Company uses historical data to estimate
holder’s expected exercise behavior. If the Company is a newly formed corporation or shares of the Company are thinly
traded the contractual term of the share options and similar instruments is used as the expected term of share options and
similar instruments as the Company does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which
to estimate expected term.
•
Expected volatility
of the entity’s shares and the method used to estimate it. Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 718-10-50-2(f) (2)(ii) a thinly
traded or nonpublic entity that uses the calculated value method shall disclose the reasons why it is not practicable for
the Company to estimate the expected volatility of its share price, the appropriate industry sector index that it has selected,
the reasons for selecting that particular index, and how it has calculated historical volatility using that index. The Company
uses the average historical volatility of the comparable companies over the expected contractual life of the share options
or similar instruments as its expected volatility. If shares of a company are thinly traded the use of weekly or monthly price
observations would generally be more appropriate than the use of daily price observations as the volatility calculation using
daily observations for such shares could be artificially inflated due to a larger spread between the bid and asked quotes
and lack of consistent trading in the market.
•
Expected annual
rate of quarterly dividends. An entity that uses a method that employs different dividend rates during the contractual term
shall disclose the range of expected dividends used and the weighted average expected dividends. The expected dividend yield
is based on the Company’s current dividend yield as the best estimate of projected dividend yield for periods within
the expected term of the share options and similar instruments.
•
Risk-free rate(s).
An entity that uses a method that employs different risk-free rates shall disclose the range of risk-free rates used. The
risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for periods within the expected
term of the share options and similar instruments.

Pursuant to
ASC paragraph 505-50-257, if fully vested, no forfeitable equity instruments are issued at the date the grantor and grantee enter
into an agreement for goods or services (no specific performance is required by the grantee to retain those equity instruments),
then, because of the elimination of any obligation on the part of the counterparty to earn the equity instruments, a measurement
date has been reached. A grantor shall recognize the equity instruments when they are issued (in most cases, when the agreement
is entered into). Whether the corresponding cost is an immediate expense or a prepaid asset (or whether the debit should be characterized
as contra equity under the requirements of paragraph 505-50-45-1) depends on the specific facts and circumstances. Pursuant to
ASC paragraph 505-50-45-1, a grantor may conclude that an asset (other than a note or a receivable) has been received in return
for fully vested, non-forfeitable equity instruments that are issued at the date the grantor and grantee enter into an agreement
for goods or services (and no specific performance is required by the grantee in order to retain those equity instruments). Such
an asset shall not be displayed as contra equity by the grantor of the equity instruments.
The transferability
(or lack thereof) of the equity instruments shall not affect the balance sheet display of the asset. This guidance is limited
to transactions in which equity instruments are transferred to other than employees in exchange for goods or services. Section
505-50-30 provides guidance on the determination of the measurement date for transactions that are within the scope of this Subtopic.
Pursuant to
Paragraphs 505-50-25-8 and 505-50-25-9, an entity may grant fully vested, non-forfeitable equity instruments that are exercisable
by the grantee only after a specified period of time if the terms of the agreement provide for earlier exercisability if the grantee
achieves specified performance conditions. Any measured cost of the transaction shall be recognized in the same period(s) and
in the same manner as if the entity had paid cash for the goods or services or used cash rebates as a sales discount instead of
paying with, or using, the equity instruments. A recognized asset, expense, or sales discount shall not be reversed if a share
option and similar instrument that the counterparty has the right to exercise expires unexercised.
Pursuant to
ASC paragraph 505-50-30-S99-1, if the Company receives a right to receive future services in exchange for unvested, forfeitable
equity instruments, those equity instruments are treated as unissued for accounting purposes until the future services are received
(that is, the instruments are not considered issued until they vest). Consequently, there would be no recognition at the measurement
date and no entry should be recorded.
Equity
Instruments Issued to Parties Other Than Employees for Acquiring Goods or Services
The Company
accounts for equity instruments issued to parties other than employees for acquiring goods or services under guidance of Sub-topic
505-50 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Sub-topic 505-50”).
Pursuant to
ASC Section 505-50-30, all transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments
are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever
is more reliably measurable. The measurement date used to determine the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier
of the date on which the performance is complete or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur. If the Company

Revenue
Recognition
The Company
derives revenues from the sale of GE branded fans and lighting fixtures to large retailers through retail and online sales.
Sales are
recognized at the time title transfers to the customer, generally upon shipment and when all the following have occurred: (1)
persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (2) asset is transferred to the customer without further obligation, (3) the sales
price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and (4) collectability is reasonably assured.
Trade allowances
and a provision for estimated returns and other allowances are recorded at the time sales are made, considering historical and
anticipated trends.
On January
1, 2017, we adopted the new accounting standard ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all the related amendments
(“new revenue standard”) to all contracts using the modified retrospective method, while prior period amounts are
not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting under Topic 605. The adoption has had an immaterial
impact to our comparative net income and as such comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under
the accounting standards in effect for those periods. We expect the impact of the adoption of the new standard to be immaterial
to our net income on an ongoing basis.
A majority
of our sales revenue continues to be recognized when products are shipped from our manufacturing facilities and from our third-party
logistics facility.
Cost of
Sales
Cost of sales
represents costs directly related to produce, acquire and source inventory for sale, and provisions for inventory shrinkage and
obsolescence. These costs include costs of purchased products, inbound freight, custom duties.
Shipping
and Handling Cost
Costs
incurred by the Company to deliver finished goods are expensed and recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses.
Selling, general
and administrative expenses include employee and related costs, stock compensation, marketing, professional fees, distribution,
warehouse costs, and other related selling costs. Stock compensation expense consists of non-cash charges resulting from
the issuance of stock units and stock options. Selling expenses include costs incurred in the selling of merchandise. General
and administrative expenses include costs incurred in the administration or general operations of the business.

Earnings
(Loss) Per Share
Basic net
earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common stock
outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) for the period by
the weighted average number of common stocks, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during
each period.
The Company
uses the “treasury stock” method to determine whether there is a dilutive effect of outstanding convertible debt,
option and warrant contracts. For the nine-months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company reflected net loss and a dilutive
net loss, and the effect of considering any common stock equivalents would have been antidilutive for the period. Therefore, separate
computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share is not presented for the periods presented.
The Company
has the following Common Stock equivalents at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017:

Related
Parties
The Company
follows subtopic 850-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the identification of related parties and disclosure
of related party transactions.
Pursuant to
Section 850-10-20 the related parties include (a) Affiliates of the Company; (b) Entities for which investments in their
equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section
825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; (c) Trusts for the benefit of employees,
such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; (d) Principal owners
of the Company; (e) Management of the Company; (f) Other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls
or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties
might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and (g) Other parties that can significantly influence
the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties
and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully
pursuing its own separate interests.
The consolidated
financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense
allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated
in the preparation of consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall
include: (a). the nature of the relationship(s) involved; (b). a description of the transactions, including transactions
to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such
other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the financial statements; (c).
the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change
in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and (d). amounts due from or to related parties
as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.
Contingencies
The Company
follows subtopic 450-20 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report accounting for contingencies. Certain conditions
may exist as of the date the consolidated financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which
will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities,
and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings
that are pending against the Company or un-asserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived
merits of any legal proceedings or un-asserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected
to be sought therein.
If the assessment
of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated,
then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a
potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then
the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be
disclosed.
13
Loss contingencies
considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.
However, there is no assurance that such matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, consolidated
financial position, and consolidated results of operations or consolidated cash flows.
Subsequent
Events
The Company
follows the guidance in Section 855-10-50 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the disclosure of subsequent events.
The Company will evaluate subsequent events through the date when the financial statements are issued.
Pursuant to
ASU 201009 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, the Company as an SEC filer considers its financial statements issued
when they are widely distributed to users, such as through filing them on EDGAR.
Recently
Issued Accounting Pronouncements
On January
1, 2017 We adopted the new accounting standard ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all the related amendments (“new
revenue standard”) to all contracts using the modified retrospective method, while prior period amounts are not adjusted
and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting under Topic 605. The adoption of this guidance did not
have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. We expect the impact of the adoption of
the new standard to be immaterial to our net income on an ongoing basis.
In August
2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic
815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (“ASU 2017-12”). ASU 2017-12 expands component
and fair value hedging, specifies the presentation of the effects of hedging instruments, and eliminates the separate measurement
and presentation of hedge ineffectiveness. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance. We do not expect
adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In November
2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (“ASU 2016-18”),
which enhances and clarifies the guidance on the classification and presentation of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows.
The Company will adopt ASU 2016-18 in its first quarter of 2019. We do not expect adoption of this guidance to have a material
impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In March 2016,
the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Stock Compensation, which is intended to simplify the accounting for share-based payment award transactions.
The new standard will modify several aspects of the accounting and reporting for employee share-based payments and related tax
accounting impacts, including the presentation in the statements of operations and cash flows of certain tax benefits or deficiencies
and employee tax withholdings, as well as the accounting for award forfeitures over the vesting period. The guidance is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that year, and will be adopted by the Company
in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The Company anticipates the new standard will result in an increase in the number of shares
used in the calculation of diluted earnings per share and will add volatility to the Company’s effective tax rate and income
tax expense. The magnitude of such impacts will depend in part on whether significant employee stock option exercises occur.
In March 2016,
the FASB issued an accounting standard update which simplifies the accounting for share-based payment transactions, inclusive
of income tax accounting and disclosure considerations. This guidance is effective for fiscal and interim periods beginning after
December 15, 2016 and is required to be applied retrospectively to all impacted share-based payment arrangements. We adopted this
guidance on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial position, results
of operations or cash flows.
In January
2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-01, which amends
the guidance in U.S. GAAP on the classification and measurement of financial instruments. Changes to the current guidance primarily
affect the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure
requirements for financial instruments. In addition, the ASU clarifies guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment
when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. The new standard
is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and upon adoption, an entity should apply
the amendments by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet at the beginning of the first reporting period
in which the guidance is effective. Early adoption is not permitted except for the provision to record fair value changes for
financial liabilities under the fair value option resulting from instrument-specific credit risk in other comprehensive income.
We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.
In February
2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update which modifies the accounting for leasing arrangements, particularly those
arrangements classified as operating leases. This update will require entities to recognize the assets and liabilities arising
from operating leases on the balance sheet. This guidance is effective for fiscal and interim periods beginning after December
15, 2018 and is required to be applied retrospectively to all leasing arrangements. We are currently assessing the effects this
guidance may have on our financial statements. Based on the lease portfolio as of September 30, 2018, we do not expect the
Company to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
14
In January
2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-01, Clarifying the Definition of a Business (“ASU 2017-01”).
The standard clarifies the definition of a business by adding guidance to assist entities in evaluating whether transactions should
be accounted for as acquisitions of assets or businesses. ASU 2017-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Under ASU 2017-01, to be considered a business, the assets in the transaction
need to include an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. Prior
to the adoption of the new guidance, an acquisition or disposition would be considered a business if there were inputs, as well
as processes that when applied to those inputs had the ability to create outputs. Early adoption is permitted for certain transactions.
Adoption of ASU 2017-01 may have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements if we enter into future business combinations.
In January
2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”).
ASU 2017-04 simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairment by removing Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires
a hypothetical purchase price allocation. ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2019 and should be applied on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual
goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. We do not anticipate the adoption of ASU 2017-04 will
have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

On November
26, 2013, May 8, 2014 and June 25, 2014 the Company completed closings in connection with its offering (the “Notes Offering”)
of its 12% and 15% Secured Convertible Promissory Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $4,270,100 (the “Notes”),
with certain accredited investors, as defined under Regulation D, Rule 501 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Pursuant
to the Notes Offering, each Investor also received five (5) year common stock warrants to purchase the Company’s Common
Stock at $0.375 per share (each a “Warrant” and collectively, the “Warrants”). The Notes and Warrants
were treated as derivative liabilities.
In May 2016,
the Company invited the holders of all Notes, where such holders had not already made an election to redeem or convert their Notes,
to forbear or extend their forbearance period to make an election to convert or redeem their Notes (the “August 2016 Election”).
This also provided a third option to all noteholders (the “Preferred Option”), whereby such holders could convert
their respective Note(s) into shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”). Pursuant to the
August 2016 Election, the Company issued 13,456,936 shares of Preferred Stock, representing $3,364,234 in outstanding Note principal
balance.
All Notes
have either been re-paid in cash, separate debt obligation or by conversion, and all Notes have been terminated.
(A) Terms
of Debt
The Note debt
carried interest between 12% and 15%, and became due in November 2015, May 2016 and September 2016, as extended to July 31, 2016
pursuant to certain forbearance agreements. All Notes issued in connection with the Notes Offering were convertible at $0.25,
but are now terminated, and all Warrants issued in connection with the Notes Offering are convertible at $0.375 per share, subject
to the existence of a “ratchet feature”, which allows for a lower offering price if the Company offers shares to the
public at a lower price.
(B) Offer
to Convert Debt to Preferred Shares
For those
holders electing the Preferred Option, each holder has received shares of the Preferred Stock on a 1 to 1 ratio to the number
of shares of Common Stock which are then convertible under such holder’s respective Note. With respect to interest on junior
securities, dividends, distributions or liquidation preference, shares of Preferred Stock will rank senior to shares of Common
Stock or other junior securities. Along with other terms customary for a class of convertible preferred stock, the Preferred Stock
will be convertible into shares of Common Stock at the same conversion price as the Notes (i.e., USD $0.25 per share), and will
pay interest quarterly at a rate of six percent (6%). The Preferred Stock will be convertible upon the election of the holder
thereof. Shares of the Preferred Stock may be repurchased by the Company upon 30 days’ prior written notice, in whole or
in part, for USD $3.50 per share, provided that during such notice period the holder will continue to have the option and right
to convert its shares of Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock. Holders will also have a put option, during such notice
period, allowing them to sell their shares of Preferred Stock back to the Company at USD $0.25 per share, the Note conversion
price.
Each holder
electing the Preferred Option was required to enter into an amendment to its Note, providing that the Note will be convertible
into the Preferred Stock rather than Common Stock, and to thereafter elect to convert their Note, as amended, into Preferred Stock.
In addition, each holder entered into a lockup agreement, whereby the holder agreed not to offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge,
give, donate, transfer or otherwise dispose of (i) the shares of Common Stock it then holds, (ii) the shares of Preferred Stock
obtained upon conversion of its Note, and (iii) the shares of Common Stock underlying the Preferred Stock, for a period of twelve
(12) months following the date of such agreement. The Note amendments, conversion to Preferred Stock and lockup agreement have
been entered into on August 15, 2016. The Note amendments were approved by a majority of the holders of the then outstanding Notes.

10 GE ROYALTY OBLIGATIONS
On
June 15, 2011, the Company entered into the License Agreement with General Electric, pursuant to which the Company has the right
to market certain ceiling light and fan fixtures displaying the GE brand. The Company and GE subsequently amended the License
Agreement on April 17, 2013, August 13, 2014 and on September 25, 2018. The License Agreement imposes certain manufacturing and
quality control conditions that the Company must maintain in order to continue to use the GE brand. The License Agreement is nontransferable
and cannot be sublicensed. Various termination clauses are applicable to the License Agreement; however, none were applicable
as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.
On
August 13, 2014, the Company entered into a second amendment to the License Agreement pertaining to its royalty obligations and
having a term ending on November 20, 2018. Under the terms of the amendment, the Company agreed to pay to General Electric a minimum
trademark license fee of $12,000,000 by November 30, 2018 (the “Initial Royalty Obligation”) for the rights assigned
in the original contract. The amendment provided that, if the Company did not pay to GE royalties equal to the Initial Royalty
Obligation over the term of the License Agreement, the Company would owe the difference to GE in December 2018.
The
Company is expanding its relationship with GE to collaborate on mutual capabilities, and in September 2018, the Company entered
into a third amendment to the License Agreement, expanding its product range, including smart, and adding additional global territory
rights. The License Agreement was extended for an additional five years and expires on November 30, 2023. The approximate remaining
$10,000,000 Initial Royalty Obligation that was due on November 30, 2018 was waived by the amendment. In consideration, the Company
agreed to pay $2,000,000 each year in 2018, 2019 and 2020 (the “Minimum Payments”) for a total of $6,000,000. The
Minimum Payments will be offset against the royalty payments made to GE during the respective year, as set forth below.
Royalty
payments are due quarterly, based upon the prior quarters’ sales. Royalty payments will be paid from sales of GE branded
product subject to the following repayment schedule:
Net
Sales in Contract Year
Percentage
of Contract Year Net Sales owed to GE
$0 to $50,000,000
7%
$50,000,001 to $100,000,000

The
Company made payments of $55,625 and $422,211 for the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2018, respectively; and payments
of $218,933 and $356,017 for the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2017, respectively.
As
of September 30, 2018, the outstanding balance of the aggregate Minimum Payment was $5,577,789. As of December 31, 2017, the outstanding
balance of the Initial Royalty Obligation was $10,760,566.

In accordance
with the August 2016 Elections (see Note 8), the Company has issued 13,456,932 shares of 6% Preferred Stock in exchange for Notes
having a principal balance of $3,364,234. The Preferred Stock will be convertible upon the election of the holder thereof. Shares
of the Preferred Stock may be repurchased by the Company upon 30 days’ prior written notice, in whole or in part, for USD
$3.50 per share, provided that during such notice period the holder will continue to have the option and right to convert its
shares of Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock. Holders also have a put option, allowing them to sell their shares of Preferred
Stock back to the Company at USD $0.25 per share, the Note conversion price, and therefore the stock is classified as Mezzanine
equity rather than permanent equity. The stock was valued based upon the value of shares of Common Stock publicly traded nearest
the conversion date. During the year ended December 31, 2017 the Company paid dividends in the amount of $149,737 to the Preferred
Stock shareholders.

On April 27,

a majority of the Company’s shareholders approved the 2015 Plan. Under the 2015 Plan, the Board has the sole authority to

“us” or “our” include SQL Technologies Corp. and its subsidiaries. This management’s discussion
and analysis should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,

Forward-Looking
Statements
The information
set forth in this Quarterly Report contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities

statements relate to our plans, objectives and expectations for future operations. Although we believe that our expectations with
respect to the forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions within the bounds of our knowledge of our business
and operations, in light of the risks and uncertainties inherent in all future projections, the inclusion of forward-looking statements
in this Quarterly Report should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that our objectives or plans will
be achieved. Our revenues and results of operations could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements
as a result of numerous factors, including, but not limited to, the following: the risk of significant natural disaster, the inability
of the Company to insure against certain risks, inflationary and deflationary conditions and cycles, currency exchange rates,
and changing government regulations domestically and internationally affecting our products and businesses.
We assume

Overview
We are a company
engaged in the business of developing proprietary technology that enables a quick and safe installation of electrical fixtures,
such as ceiling and wall lights and ceiling fans, by the use of a weight bearing power plug affixed into ceiling and wall electrical
junction boxes. Our patented technology consists of a fixable socket and a revolving plug for conducting electric power and supporting
an electrical appliance attached to a wall or ceiling. The socket is comprised of a non-conductive body that houses conductive
rings connectable to an electric power supply through terminals in its side exterior. The plug, also comprised of a non-conductive
body that houses corresponding conductive rings, attaches to the socket via a male post and is capable of feeding electric power
to an appliance. The plug also includes a second structural element allowing it to revolve with a releasable latching which, when
engaged, provides a retention force between the socket and the plug to prevent disengagement. The socket and plug can be detached
by releasing the latch, disengaging the electric power from the plug. The socket is designed to replace the support bar incorporated
in electric junction boxes, and the plug can be installed in light fixtures, ceiling fans and wall sconce fixtures.
We currently
manufacture and sell ceiling fans and lighting fixtures branded with the General Electric logo and manufactured under General
Electric’s strict guidance, pursuant to the License Agreement between us and General Electric. Our ceiling fans and lighting
fixtures are manufactured by several well-established factories in the Peoples Republic of China. Most, if not all, of these factories
have been in business for over 20 years and follow strict human rights and sustainability protocols.
In December
2016, the SQL Technology was included in the 2017 National Electrical Code (NEC).
The Company
is currently in the process of transitioning its products portfolio to advanced “smart” technologies, along with a
new sales methods and marketing strategy, which will include unique, innovative advanced technologies.

ended September 30, 2018, which includes a $4,000,000 reduction in royalty payments as a result of the amended GE License Agreement.
This compares with $5,651,672 during the same period in 2017, which includes $5,000,000 cash proceeds from the exercise of warrants.
As
a result of the above operating, investing and financing activities, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents for the nine-month
ended September 30, 2018 decreased $1,728,358 compared to an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $2,233,179 during the same
period in 2017. The Company had $3,149,362 in cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2018, as compared to $6,359,067 at September
30, 2017.
The
Company had a working capital deficit of $19,596,144 as of September 30, 2018, as compared to $23,271,348 as of December 31, 2017,
which includes $17,361,178 and $19,175,754 in derivative liabilities, respectively.
A majority
of the Company’s sales do not require the Company to take delivery of inventory. Production of such inventory comprised
of SQL Technology and fixtures will be originated upon receipt of FOB (free on board) purchase contracts from customers. Upon
the completion of each purchase contract, the finished products will be transported from the manufacturer directly to the ports
and loaded on vessels secured by the customer, upon which time the products become the property of the customer.
U.S.
Federal Income Tax Reform Could Adversely Affect Us
On December
22, 2017, President Trump signed into law the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” (TCJA) that significantly reforms the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The TCJA, among other things, includes changes to U.S. federal tax rates to 21 percent from
35 percent, imposes significant additional limitations on the deductibility of interest, allows for the expensing of capital expenditures,
and puts into effect the migration from a “worldwide” system of taxation to a territorial system. We are currently
evaluating the impact of the TCJA; we do not expect tax reform to have a material impact on our financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.
Non-GAAP
Financial Measures
To
supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, management uses adjusted
net income (loss) to evaluate operating and financial performance and believes the measure is useful to investors because it eliminates
the impact of certain noncash and/or other items that management does not consider to be indicative of the Company’s performance
from period to period. Management also believes this non-GAAP measure is useful to investors to evaluate and compare the Company’s
operating and financial performance across periods, as well as facilitating comparisons to others in the Company’s industry.
We
use the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as net income (loss), plus interest income; interest expense;
depreciation and amortization; unrealized derivative gains and losses, non-recurring income and expenses, and stock-based compensation
expense. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA helps identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by the
effect of the expenses that we exclude in Adjusted EBITDA.
These
non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude significant
expenses and income that are required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”)
to be recorded in the company’s financial statements and are subject to inherent limitations. Investors should review the
reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures that are included below.

Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
Critical Accounting
Policies Included in the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements in this report is a summary of all significant accounting
policies used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Our consolidated financial statements are prepared
in accordance with accounting methods and practices as required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures. In
particular, our critical accounting policies and areas in which we use judgment are revenue recognition, the estimated collectability
of accounts receivable, the recoverability of obsolete or overstocked inventory, the impairment of assets that are our trademarks
and goodwill, the recoverability of deferred tax assets and the measurement of retirement related benefits. We base our estimates
on historical experience, as appropriate, and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Changes in the accounting estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. Accordingly, actual results could differ
significantly from the estimates made by our management. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. To the
extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation,
financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected. We believe that the following critical accounting
policies involve a greater degree of judgment and complexity than our other accounting policies. Accordingly, these are the policies
we believe are the most critical to understanding and evaluating our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.
Estimates
The preparation
of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements and accompanying notes.
Such estimates
and assumptions impact both assets and liabilities, including but not limited to: net realizable value of accounts receivable
and inventory, estimated useful lives and potential impairment of property and equipment, the valuation of intangible assets,
estimate of fair value of share based payments and derivative liabilities, estimates of fair value of warrants issued and recorded
as debt discount, estimates of tax liabilities and estimates of the probability and potential magnitude of contingent liabilities.
Making estimates
requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a
condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered
in formulating its estimate could change in the near term due to one or more future non-conforming events. Accordingly, actual
results could differ significantly from estimates.

ITEM 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the
end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision
and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer, who is also serving as our Principal
Financial Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls
and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
Based upon this evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls
and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that are
filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified by
the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and
communicated to our management including our Principal Executive Officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure.
Because of
the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that the Company’s
disclosure controls and procedures will detect or uncover every situation involving the failure of persons within the Company
to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in the Company’s periodic reports.
Changes
in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
No changes
were made in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during
our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control
over financial reporting.
